The Winchester

It’s autumn, you guys! And that means that most restaurants are switching over their menus. It’s so exciting for me because I prefer the flavors and heartiness of autumn and winter dishes. The Winchester is one of those restaurants that recently switched their menu. Since I had only had their breakfast, I could not wait to try the dinner menu! But, before I get to that, let’s talk about their space.

The minimalist decor of the Winchester really speaks to me. How can a space be so clean and sterile looking while also giving you a cozy and comforting feeling? I don’t have the answer to that question, but I don’t need it. I will always be drawn to this place and all the light that it holds.

Okay, now comes the food. Chef Greg Bastien created an absolutely stunning menu. Light and refreshing salads, hearty but not heavy entrees, and traditional sides with a twist. All using fresh, local, and seasonal ingredients. I was very impressed! This is definitely getting added to our “Date Night” list!
